Yep! It was great before to be honest, but when enquiring about the wife’s Disco Sport I asked Pete what it would cost for the extra 20 and at £60 I forgot about the wife and booked mine in!! Noticeably more low end torque and even smoother than the 150 map. I don’t tow or drive hard, so don’t need the uprated intercooler, although will get it whenever the current one fails.

Quick shot in the Sunday morning sun. Loire blue is quite a colour when the sun is on it.

Had a nightmare today with the lof Powermaster to the point where I gave up, which doesn’t happen often. Decided to cheer myself up by sorting out the dumb irons as I continue the lockdown chassis preservation project. The factory welding on this has been winding me up since I got the 90. I don’t understand how anyone can stand back after a weld like this and think to themselves “yep, happy with that”. So, angle grinder came out to cut the worst off, then the flap disc to tidy things up, then a few hours soaking any remaining rust with Jenolite, then paint. Happy again.

you should have seen what my dad did to his, He decided to remove the bumper and bull bar setup to give it a paint. He then decided to have a go at the dumb irons with a hammer, One side the full jacking point had vanished and he knocked a hole on the other side. my mum went ape! He thought replacements were cheap so he wasn't bothered, on what damage he did. He got me to research the price, and he shat a right old hair worm! When he saw the price per side!! He sharp knocked his knocking and poking sessions right on the head. I had to sort out the welder, and buy some stuff for it, then we had to patch it all up. He made the patches. He did have a go at welding it, but decided to bottle out in the end, for some reason and i ended up doing it. Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back

Alive uprated rear arb fitted, almost (see other thread on the subject). Some difference in gauge/weight between the two.

I’ve been impressed, it makes more of a difference than I thought. All the comfort but planted in the corners. Should have done it ages ago.
